Noting a major gap in the literature of independent school libraries, Dorcas Hand has reached out to notable independent school teacher librarians from across the country to assemble an eclectic set of articles targeting this unique audience. Topics ranged from collaboration to technology; from advocacy to administrative and management concerns and are well written and edited. This is a collection to be read and reread by independent school teacher librarians and shared with the governing councils of these schools. And, as stated in the subtitle, the central theme is excellence. Congratulations to Hand for a fine collection and a must read for these schools and for anyone interested in becoming a teacher librarian in an independent school.
